Lanthanum Hexaboride Sputtering Target
Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) sputtering targets are renowned for their outstanding electron emission properties and high thermal stability. Sputtered LaB6 films are commonly used as electron emitters in cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and field emission displays (FEDs) due to their low work function and strong resistance to thermal degradation. These properties make LaB6 an excellent choice for high-temperature and high-vacuum applications. Furthermore, LaB6 is being investigated for its potential in advanced vacuum microelectronics and as a coating material to enhance electron emission efficiency in various electronic components.
